#### 26.3.2 Configuring links for DocBook XML

DocBook requires linking mark-up that is slightly different from mark-up for generic XML. The following settings require other than the default value:

    [HTMLOptions]
    ; HrefAttribute = name to use for link source attr, default href; use
    ;  linkend for DocBook
    HrefAttribute = linkend
    ; UseHash = Yes (default, start local hrefs with #)
    ;  or No; the # is not valid in DocBook
    UseHash = No
    ; UseUlink = No (default, use ATagName for URLs) or Yes (use
    ;  ulink for URLs, and url as the HrefAttribute within them)
    UseUlink = Yes
    ; RemoveXrefHotspots = No (default) or Yes (remove hotspot text for
    ;  xrefs and hyperlinks, retain it for external URLs)
    RemoveXrefHotspots = Yes
    ; UseListedXrefFilesOnly = No (default) or Yes (consider any xref
    ;  target files not listed in [XrefFiles] to refer to the current
    ;  file.) This suppresses filenames for DocBook where files are in the
    ;  same DocBook book; files not in the book must be listed in
    ;  [XrefFiles].
    UseListedXrefFilesOnly = Yes
